Summary: Wore my first copy out....!
Comment: This amazing cookbook has been a staple in our home since the mid-70's when cooking with whole grains and offering meatless dishes for dinner was weird. The Mennonites have long focused on healthy foods and joyful preparations that are kind to your food budget and consume less of the world's limited food resources. I wore out my first copy and am delighted to be able to still buy this wonderful resource!

Summary: More With Less Cookbook (World Community Cookbook)
Comment: My son and daughter-in-law received a copy of this cookbook at their wedding a few years ago. I've looked it over many times and really wanted a copy. I'm happy to say I just received mine and am ready to try it!

Summary: Great, but...
Comment: This cookbook is a great start to learning how to stretch your dollar. Just a few things to note before purchasing: 1) it does not allow for gluten intolerance or other allergies (I wasn't able to use any of the bread recipes, for instance), 2) the philosophy it teaches of using less meat and more complimentary vegetable proteins is common sense and some may not be willing to do this, 3) even though it teaches the use of complimentary proteins, there are a lot of recipes which use white rice and regular flour, both of which have very little protein to offer (use whole grains instead). They make up for this by using lots of soy, legumes and some dairy. 4) Most recipes are hearty, standard fair. No mediteranean flavors like olive oil, etc. That being said, so far the recipes are tasty. I just add vegetables to the recipes for color, texture and nutrition.

Summary: Great Basic Cookbook
Comment: I bought this after finding recipes on a few blogs I read. It was so worth the money! I did find it an interesting read, too, but what I like best is all the very basic recipes it contained. We've made homemade "Hamburger Helper", found an easy replacement for cream of soups and "Shake n Bake", and made our own chocolate pudding. It's very empowering to discover you can make a lot of this boxed stuff yourself. Not only is it a lot healthier (and cheaper), but it tastes a LOT better, too.
